A Kidney Function Test (KFT), often referred to as a Kidney Panel, is a group of blood tests that are used to assess the functioning of the kidneys. The kidneys play a vital role in filtering waste products and excess substances from the blood, maintaining electrolyte balance, and regulating blood pressure. A KFT helps evaluate the overall health and efficiency of the kidneys. Here are the key components typically included in a Kidney Function Test: Serum Creatinine, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR), Serum Electrolytes (Sodium, Potassium, and Calcium), Phosphorus and Magnesium, Uric Acid, Albumin Etc.
